Area Named Best in Nation for Warehousing
Chicago Consulting, a leading supply chain consultant, has named Northwest Kentucky the best location in the nation for warehouse networks. Specifically, the firm singled out Henderson as the best location on their annual 10 Best Warehouse Networks locations.
According to the group, Henderson is the “best” place to locate one warehouse because it provides the shortest distance to the US population and, therefore, the lowest outbound distance, and takes the least amount of time. “Some shipments from Henderson would travel 100 miles, some 200 miles and still others over 1,000 miles, but the average from Henderson is the lowest possible—804 miles or 2.27 days.”
By reducing travel time and thus fuel consumption, a warehouse in Henderson can help a company reduce its carbon footprint and operate in a “more green” manner.
